For a good while I have been avoiding the word "teaching" in all my writing for - and work with - teachers. Ironic. New times new terms?

@charnobyl1 very validating for me to see so much overlap with pedagogy related to #NGSS - writing learning targets that support inquiry; when/how to introduce new vocab; and ensure opportunities for Ss 'figuring out' instead of only learning about

All learners come to classrooms with communication resources that are productive for learning. Educators should build on these resources. #NGSS #NGSSchat #SciEd stemteachingtools.org/brief/…

In October 2019, @JennySarna of @NextGenScience and @GreatCitySchls presented a sneak peek of their survey of the State of Science in 56 of the nation’s largest urban districts to district leaders. One key finding? Science in elementary is crucial.

We tell young people things would be better (climate/Covid) if we heeded advice from the sci comm., while science and social sts are dropped from K–5 virtual ed at many schools. No one’s fault (certainly not teachers). Considerations as we look to integration and the future.

Replying to @jasonhickel
Robert F. Kennedy made a speech on March 18 1968, including the seminal passage below and sadly still true 52 years later!

Check out today's Daily Do from @NSTA, "How does a pandemic cause less CO2?" Students & their families engage in science & engineering practices to make sense of the phenomenon of concentrations of greenhouse gasses decreasing as the world-wide spread of the coronavirus increases
